Preparing Your Development Environment for Gemini Pro
Step 1: Installing the Google Generative AI Library
We begin with the installation of the google-generativeai
library via pip
, enabling interaction with Google’s generative models, particularly Gemini Pro, in Python, as demonstrated below:
!pip install -q -U google-generativeai
The google-generativeai
library is installed.
Step 2: Importing Essential Python Packages
import textwrap import google.generativeai as genai import google.ai.generativelanguage as glm from IPython.display import Markdown from google.colab import userdata
This code snippet starts by importing four crucial Python libraries. The textwrap
library is utilized for its capabilities in handling and formatting text, making it invaluable for organizing output. The google.generativeai
library, referred to as genai
, serves as the primary interface for accessing a suite of AI functionalities, with a particular focus on the Gemini Pro model.
The google.ai.generativelanguage
library, or glm
, plays a crucial role alongside the google.generativeai
library in our code. It introduces the Content
and Part
methods, essential for organizing chat history into roles and messages, thus facilitating a seamless and dynamic information exchange. This structure not only preserves the conversation’s context but also enriches it with each exchange, ensuring that the model’s responses remain relevant and context-sensitive. This significantly enhances user experience by producing conversations that are both natural and coherent. Ultimately, glm
extends the google.generativeai
library’s functionality, providing specialized tools for managing complex language-based interactions, from conversational AI to text generation and analysis.
The Markdown
function from IPython.display
is included to improve the presentation of outputs directly in the Colab notebook, allowing for richer text formatting. Additionally, from google.colab import userdata
is integrated to facilitate the use of user data within the notebook, enhancing personalized interaction with the models.
Step 3: Securely Configuring Your API Key
# Used to securely store your API key # Or use `os.getenv('GOOGLE_API_KEY')` to fetch an environment variable. GOOGLE_API_KEY=userdata.get("GEMINI_API_KEY") genai.configure(api_key=GOOGLE_API_KEY)
This snippet utilizes the userdata
module from the google.colab
library to securely retrieve the "GEMINI_API_KEY"
, subsequently assigning it to GOOGLE_API_KEY
. As an alternative, one might opt to use os.getenv('GOOGLE_API_KEY')
for acquiring the API key from an environment variable.
Following this, genai.configure(api_key=GOOGLE_API_KEY)
is executed to configure the GenAI library with the specified API key, thus ensuring authorized access to its features. Employing this method within Google Colab notebooks is advantageous for the secure handling of API keys.
Listing the Available Generative Models
for m in genai.list_models(): if "generateContent" in m.supported_generation_methods: print(m.name)
To get the list of available generative models, we iterate through the list of models available in the genai
library, checking for models that support the generateContent
method. We do this by calling genai.list_models()
, which retrieves a collection of model objects. Each model object contains various properties, including supported_generation_methods
, a list indicating the types of content generation the model supports.
For every model m in the list returned by genai.list_models()
, we check if "generateContent"
is one of the supported methods listed in m.supported_generation_methods
. If it is, the model supports content generation capabilities, and we print the name of the model (m.name
).

This question tests the model’s ability to modify the generated code to accommodate different datasets, showcasing its adaptability.
Yes, you can use a public dataset like CIFAR-10 or MN IST in the provided code. Here's how you can do it: **For CIFAR-10:** 1. Import the `torchvision .datasets` module. 2. Load the CIFAR-10 dataset using the following code: ```python train_dataset = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root='path/to/cifar10_train', train=True, download=True, transform=torchvision. transforms.ToTensor()) test_dataset = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root='path/to/cifar10_test', train=False, download=True, transform=torchvision.transforms.ToTensor()) ``` 3. Create data loaders for training and testing as usual. **For MNIST:** 1. Import the `torchvision.datasets` module. 2. Load the MNIST dataset using the following code: ```python train_dataset = torchvision.datasets.MNIST(root='path/to/mnist_train', train=True, download=True, transform=torchvision.transforms.ToTensor()) test_dataset = torchvision.datasets.MNIST(root='path/to/mnist_test', train=False, download=True, transform=torchvision.transforms.ToTensor()) ``` 3. Create data loaders for training and testing as usual. Once you have loaded the dataset, you can follow the rest of the code as provided earlier. You may need to adjust the number of classes in the model's fully connected layer to match the number of classes in the dataset you are using. For example, for CIFAR-10, you would change the number of classes to 10, and for MNIST, you would change it to 10 as well. Here is the modified code for the model initialization: ```python class ImageClassifier(nn.Module): def __init__(self): super(ImageClassifier, self).__init__() self.conv1 = nn.Conv2d(3, 64, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1) self.pool1 = nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2, stride=2) self.conv2 = nn.Conv2d(64, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1) self.pool2 = nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2, stride=2) self.fc1 = nn.Linear(128 * 7 * 7, 1024) self.fc2 = nn.Linear(1024, 10) # Adjust this to match the number of classes in your dataset def forward(self, x): x = self.conv1(x) x = self.pool1(x) x = self.conv2(x) x = self.pool2(x) x = x.view(-1, 128 * 7 * 7) x = self.fc1(x) x = self.fc2(x) return x ``` With these changes, you can use the code to train and test the image classification model on either the CIFAR-10 or MNIST dataset.
The model confirms the feasibility of using CIFAR-10 or MNIST and guides the loading of these datasets. This demonstrates Gemini Pro’s responsiveness to feedback and its capacity to offer practical solutions for refining the code based on user requirements.
response = chat.send_message("Okay, how about pass a root as ./data to cifar10?", stream=True) for chunk in response: print(chunk.text)
We further refine our request by specifying a data path for the CIFAR-10 dataset. This tests the model’s ability to incorporate specific user inputs into the code, enhancing its relevance and usability.
To pass a root of `./data` to CIFAR-10 in the provided code, you can use the following code: ```python train_dataset = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root='./data ', train=True, download=True, transform=torchvision.transforms.ToTensor()) test_dataset = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root='./data', train=False, download=True, transform=torchvision.transforms.ToTensor()) ``` This will download the CIFAR- 10 dataset to the `./data` directory and then load it into the training and testing datasets. Here is the complete modified code: ```python # Import necessary libraries import torch import torchvision import torch.nn as nn import torch.optim as optim from torch.utils.data import DataLoader # Define the device to use for training and testing device = torch.device("cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu") # Load the CIFAR-10 dataset train_dataset = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root='./data', train=True, download=True, transform=torchvision.transforms.ToTensor()) test_dataset = torchvision.datasets.CIFAR10(root='./data', train=False, download=True, transform=torchvision.transforms.ToTensor()) # Create data loaders for training and testing train_loader = DataLoader(train_dataset, batch_size=32, shuffle=True) test_loader = DataLoader(test_dataset, batch_size=32, shuffle=False) # Define the image classification model architecture class ImageClassifier(nn.Module): def __init__(self): super(ImageClassifier, self).__init__() self.conv1 = nn.Conv2d(3, 64, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1) self.pool1 = nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2, stride=2) self.conv2 = nn.Conv2d(64, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1) self.pool2 = nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2, stride= 2) self.fc1 = nn.Linear(128 * 7 * 7, 1024) self.fc2 = nn.Linear(1024, 10) # Adjust this to match the number of classes in your dataset def forward(self, x): x = self.conv1(x) x = self.pool1(x) x = self.conv2(x) x = self.pool2(x) x = x.view(-1, 128 * 7 * 7) x = self.fc1(x) x = self.fc2(x) return x # Initialize the model model = ImageClassifier().to(device) # Define the loss function and optimizer criterion = nn.CrossEntropyLoss() optimizer = optim.SGD(model.parameters(), lr=0.01, momentum=0.9) # Train the model for epoch in range(10): running_loss = 0.0 for i, data in enumerate(train_loader, 0): # Get the inputs inputs, labels = data inputs, labels = inputs.to(device), labels.to(device) # Zero the parameter gradients optimizer.zero_grad() # Forward pass outputs = model(inputs) # Compute the loss loss = criterion(outputs, labels) # Backward pass loss.backward() # Update the parameters optimizer.step() # Print statistics running_loss += loss.item() if i % 2000 == 1999: # print every 2000 mini-batches print('[%d, %5d] loss: %.3f' % (epoch + 1, i + 1, running_loss / 2000)) running_loss = 0.0 # Test the model correct = 0 total = 0 with torch.no_grad(): for data in test_loader: images, labels = data images, labels = images.to(device), labels.to(device) outputs = model (images) _, predicted = torch.max(outputs.data, 1) total += labels.size(0) correct += (predicted == labels).sum().item() print('Accuracy of the network on the 10000 test images: %d %%' % ( 100 * correct / total)) ``` Now, when you run this code, it will download the CIFAR-10 dataset to the `./data` directory and then train and test the image classification model on the dataset.
Gemini Pro successfully adjusts the code to use the specified ./data
path for downloading and loading the CIFAR-10 dataset. This adjustment showcases the model’s flexibility and its capacity to tailor the code based on detailed user specifications.
response = chat.send_message("the imageclassifier class does not use any activation function which is essential for adding non-linearity", stream=True) for chunk in response: print(chunk.text)
In this step, we highlight a critical issue in the generated code: the absence of activation functions in the ImageClassifier
model, which are crucial for learning complex patterns. This feedback is aimed at improving the model’s performance by introducing non-linearity.
You're right, the `ImageClassifier` class in the provided code does not use any activation function. Activation functions are essential for adding non-linearity to the model, which is necessary for it to learn complex patterns in the data . To add non-linearity to the model, you can use activation functions such as ReLU, LeakyReLU, or Sigmoid. Here is the modified code with a ReLU activation function added after each convolutional layer and the first fully connected layer: ```python class ImageClassifier(nn.Module ): def __init__(self): super(ImageClassifier, self).__init__() self.conv1 = nn.Conv2d(3, 64, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1) self.relu1 = nn.ReLU() self.pool1 = nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2, stride=2) self.conv2 = nn.Conv2d(64, 128, kernel_size=3, stride=1, padding=1) self.relu 2 = nn.ReLU() self.pool2 = nn.MaxPool2d(kernel_size=2, stride=2) self.fc1 = nn.Linear(128 * 7 * 7, 1024) self.relu3 = nn.ReLU() self.fc2 = nn.Linear(1024, 10) # Adjust this to match the number of classes in your dataset def forward(self, x): x = self.conv1(x) x = self.relu1(x) x = self.pool1(x) x = self.conv2(x) x = self.relu2(x) x = self.pool2(x) x = x.view(-1, 128 * 7 * 7) x = self.fc1(x) x = self.relu3(x) x = self.fc2(x) return x ``` With this change, the model will now use the ReLU activation function after each convolutional layer and the first fully connected layer. This will add non-linearity to the model and help it learn more complex patterns in the data. Remember to also import the necessary activation function at the beginning of the code: ```python import torch.nn.functional as F ``` And use `F.relu()` for the activation function in the model: ```python self.relu1 = F.relu() self.relu2 = F.relu() self.relu3 = F.relu() ``` Now, when you train the model, it should perform better due to the addition of the activation function.
Acknowledging the feedback, Gemini Pro revises the model to include ReLU activation functions at appropriate layers. This correction not only addresses the identified error but also exemplifies the model’s ability to understand and implement specific coding recommendations, thereby improving the overall code quality.
Unveiling the Limits: Advanced Error Resolution in Conversational Debugging
Through this interactive debugging session, we’ve engaged Gemini Pro in a multi-turn chat that generates code, identifies potential issues, and refines the output based on conversational feedback. This process not only reinforces the model’s utility as a coding assistant but also highlights its potential in conversational AI applications where understanding, adapting to, and acting on user feedback is critical.
These discussions we’ve detailed represent just a fraction of the extensive dialogue we engaged in with Gemini Pro. Following our conversation about integrating activation functions, we encountered further challenges, such as runtime and value errors during the model’s training phase. Specifically, we faced a value error indicating a mismatch between the expected input batch size and the target batch size, a critical issue that arose during the loss computation process. This suggested a deeper problem, possibly rooted in the architecture’s design or the data preprocessing steps.
We promptly reported these issues back to Gemini Pro, describing the errors encountered during code execution and seeking guidance on resolution. Although Gemini Pro attempted to address these concerns, the dialogue unfolded over three to four additional exchanges where it became evident that resolving these deep-level errors was a complex task. Despite the model’s adeptness at adjusting simpler aspects of the code (e.g., adding missing activation functions or specifying data paths), it struggled to rectify the more intricate issues that emerged during the computational processes, particularly those affecting the loss calculation.
Ultimately, while Gemini Pro proved to be an invaluable resource for identifying and correcting certain errors through conversational feedback, it faced limitations when addressing more complex problems that required a nuanced understanding of the neural network architecture and its interaction with the data. This experience highlighted the potential and boundaries of using conversational AI for debugging and refining machine learning code, underscoring the importance of human oversight in navigating the intricacies of model development and error resolution.

Hey, Adrian Rosebrock here, author and creator of PyImageSearch. While I love hearing from readers, a couple years ago I made the tough decision to no longer offer 1:1 help over blog post comments.
At the time I was receiving 200+ emails per day and another 100+ blog post comments. I simply did not have the time to moderate and respond to them all, and the sheer volume of requests was taking a toll on me.
Instead, my goal is to do the most good for the computer vision, deep learning, and OpenCV community at large by focusing my time on authoring high-quality blog posts, tutorials, and books/courses.
If you need help learning computer vision and deep learning, I suggest you refer to my full catalog of books and courses — they have helped tens of thousands of developers, students, and researchers just like yourself learn Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and OpenCV.
